 NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
 For the Quarterly Period Ended September 30, 2010
 (Unaudited)
  NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
 General
 
 The accompanying condensed unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q for quarterly reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the six months ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2011.  For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010.
 
 Organization
 
 WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 7, (the "Partnership"), is a California Limited Partnership formed on June 16, 1997 under the laws of the State of California and commenced operations on September 3, 1999.  The Partnership was formed to acquire limited partnership interests in other limited partnerships (“Local Limited Partnerships”) which own multi-family housing complexes (“Housing Complexes”) that are eligible for Federal low income housing tax credits (“Low Income Housing Tax Credits”).  The local general partners (the “Local General Partners”) of each Local Limited Partnership retain responsibility for maintaining, operating and managing the Housing Complexes. Each Local Limited Partnership is governed by its agreement of limited partnership (the “Local Limited Partnership Agreement”).
 
 The general partner of the Partnership is WNC & Associates, Inc., a California corporation (“Associates” or the “General Partner”). The chairman and president of Associates own all of the outstanding stock of Associates.  The business of the Partnership is conducted primarily through Associates, as the Partnership has no employees of its own.
 
 The Partnership shall continue in full force and effect until December 31, 2060 unless terminated prior to that date pursuant to the partnership agreement or law.
 
 The financial statements include only activity relating to the business of the Partnership, and do not give effect to any assets that the partners may have outside of their interests in the Partnership, or to any obligations, including income taxes, of the partners.
 
 The Partnership Agreement authorized the sale of up to 25,000 units of limited partnership interest (“Partnership Units”) at $1,000 per Partnership Unit. The offering of Partnership Units concluded and 18,850 Partnership Units, representing subscriptions in the amount of $18,828,790, net of dealer discounts of $21,210 had been accepted.  The General Partner has a 0.1% interest in operating profits and losses, taxable income and losses, cash available for distribution from the Partnership and Low Income Housing Tax Credits of the Partnership. The investors (the “Limited Partners”) will be allocated the remaining 99.9% of these items in proportion to their respective investments.

  NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
 
 The proceeds from the disposition of any of the Local Limited Partnership’s Housing Complexes will be used first to pay debts and other obligations per the respective Local Limited Partnership Agreement.  Any remaining proceeds will then be paid to the Partnership.  The sale of a Housing Complex may be subject to other restrictions and obligations.  Accordingly, there can be no assurance that a Local Limited Partnership will be able to sell its Housing Complex.  Even if it does so, there can be no assurance that any significant amounts of cash will be distributed to the Partnership.  Should such distributions occur, the Limited Partners will be entitled to receive distributions equal to their capital contributions and their return on investment (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) and the General Partner would then be entitled to receive proceeds equal to its capital contributions from the remainder.  Any additional sale or refinancing proceeds will be distributed 90% to the Limited Partners (in proportion to their respective investments) and 10% to the General Partner.
 
 Risks and Uncertainties
 
 An investment in the Partnership and the Partnership’s investments in Local Limited Partnerships and their Housing Complexes are subject to risks.  These risks may impact the tax benefits of an investment in the Partnership, and the amount of proceeds available for distribution to the Limited Partners, if any, on liquidation of the Partnership’s investments.  Some of those risks include the following:
 
 The Low Income Housing Tax Credits rules are extremely complicated. Noncompliance with these rules results in the loss of future Low Income Housing Tax Credits and the fractional recapture of Low Income Housing Tax Credits already taken. In most cases the annual amount of Low Income Housing Tax Credits that an individual can use is limited to the tax liability due on the person’s last $25,000 of taxable income. The Local Limited Partnerships may be unable to sell the Housing Complexes at a price which would result in the Partnership realizing cash distributions or proceeds from the transaction.  Accordingly, the Partnership may be unable to distribute any cash to its Limited Partners. Low Income Housing Tax Credits may be the only benefit from an investment in the Partnership.
 
 The Partnership has invested in a limited number of Local Limited Partnerships. Such limited diversity means that the results of operation of each single Housing Complex will have a greater impact on the Partnership. With limited diversity, poor performance of one Housing Complex could impair the Partnership’s ability to satisfy its investment objectives.  Each Housing Complex is subject to mortgage indebtedness. If a Local Limited Partnership failed to pay its mortgage, it could lose its Housing Complex in foreclosure. If foreclosure were to occur during the first 15 years, the loss of any remaining future Low Income Housing Tax Credits, a fractional recapture of prior Low Income Housing Tax Credits, and a loss of the Partnership’s investment in the Housing Complex would occur. The Partnership is a limited partner or a non-managing member of each Local Limited Partnership. Accordingly, the Partnership will have very limited rights with respect to management of the Local Limited Partnerships. The Partnership will rely totally on the Local General Partners. Neither the Partnership’s investments in Local Limited Partnerships, nor the Local Limited Partnerships’ investments in Housing Complexes, are readily marketable. To the extent the Housing Complexes receive government financing or operating subsidies, they may be subject to one or more of the following risks: difficulties in obtaining tenants for the Housing Complexes; difficulties in obtaining rent increases; limitations on cash distributions; limitations on sales or refinancing of Housing Complexes; limitations on transfers of interests in Local Limited Partnerships; limitations on removal of Local General Partners; limitations on subsidy programs; and possible changes in applicable regulations.  Uninsured casualties could result in loss of property and Low Income Housing Tax Credits and recapture of Low Income Housing Tax Credits previously taken. The value of real estate is subject to risks from fluctuating economic conditions, including employment rates, inflation, tax, environmental, land use and zoning policies, supply and demand of similar Housing Complexes, and neighborhood conditions, among others.

  NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
 
 The ability of Limited Partners to claim tax losses from the Partnership is limited. The IRS may audit the Partnership or a Local Limited Partnership and challenge the tax treatment of tax items. The amount of Low Income Housing Tax Credits and tax losses allocable to Limited Partners could be reduced if the IRS were successful in such a challenge.  The alternative minimum tax could reduce tax benefits from an investment in the Partnership.  Changes in tax laws could also impact the tax benefits from an investment in the Partnership and/or the value of the Housing Complexes.
 
 No trading market for the Partnership Units exists or is expected to develop. Limited Partners may be unable to sell their Partnership Units except at a discount and should consider their Partnership Units to be a long-term investment. Individual Limited Partners will have no recourse if they disagree with actions authorized by a vote of the majority of Limited Partners.
 
 The Partnership currently has insufficient working capital to fund its operations.  Associates has agreed to continue providing advances sufficient enough to fund the operations and working capital requirements of the Partnership through January 31, 2012.
 
 Anticipated future and existing cash resources of the Partnership are not sufficient to pay existing liabilities of the Partnership.  However, substantially all of the existing liabilities of the Partnership are payable to the General Partner and/or its affiliates.  Though the amounts payable to the General Partner and/or its affiliates are contractually currently payable, the Partnership anticipates that the General Partner and/or its affiliates will not require the payment of these contractual obligations until capital reserves are in excess of the aggregate of then existing contractual obligations and then anticipated future foreseeable obligations of the Partnership.  The Partnership would be adversely affected should the General Partner and/or its affiliates demand current payment of the existing contractual obligations and or suspend services for this or any other reason.
 
 Exit Strategy
 
 The Compliance Period for a Housing Complex is generally 15 years following construction or rehabilitation completion. Associates was one of the first in the industry to offer syndicated investments in Low Income Housing Tax Credits.  The initial programs are completing their Compliance Periods.
 
 Upon the sale of a Local Limited Partnership or Housing Complex after the end of the Compliance Period, there would be no recapture of Low Income Housing Tax Credits. A sale prior to the end of the Compliance Period could result in recapture if certain conditions are not met.  None of the Local Limited Partnership have completed their 15-year Compliance Period.
 
 With that in mind, the General Partner is continuing its review of the Housing Complexes, with special emphasis on the more mature Housing Complexes such as any that have satisfied the IRS compliance requirements.  The review considers many factors, including extended use requirements (such as those due to mortgage restrictions or state compliance agreements), the condition of the Housing Complexes, and the tax consequences to the Limited Partners from the sale of the Housing Complexes.
 
 Upon identifying those Housing Complexes with the highest potential for a successful sale, refinancing or syndication, the Partnership expects to proceed with efforts to liquidate them. The objective is to maximize the Limited Partners’ return wherever possible and, ultimately, to wind down the Partnership. Local Limited Partnership interests may be disposed of any time by the General Partner in its discretion. While liquidation of the Housing Complexes continues to be evaluated, the dissolution of the Partnership was not imminent as of September 30, 2010.  As of September 30, 2010, no Local Limited Partnerships have been sold and one Local Limited Partnership, Lake Village Apartments, has been identified for disposition.

  NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
 
 Method of Accounting for Investments in Local Limited Partnerships
 
 The Partnership accounts for its investments in Local Limited Partnerships using the equity method of accounting, whereby the Partnership adjusts its investment balance for its share of the Local Limited Partnerships’ results of operations and for any contributions made and distributions received. The Partnership reviews the carrying amount of an individual investment in a Local Limited Partnership for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such investment may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of such investment is measured by the estimated value derived by management, generally consisting of the sum of the remaining future Low Income Housing Tax Credits estimated to be allocable to the Partnership and any estimated residual value to the Partnership.   If an investment is considered to be impaired, the Partnership reduces the carrying value of its investment in any such Local Limited Partnership.  The accounting policies of the Local Limited Partnerships, generally, are expected to be consistent with those of the Partnership. Costs incurred by the Partnership in acquiring the investments are capitalized as part of the investment account and are being amortized over 30 years (see Note 2).
 
 “Equity in losses of Local Limited Partnerships” for the periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 has been recorded by the Partnership. Management’s estimate for the three and six-month period is based on either actual unaudited results reported by the Local Limited Partnerships or historical trends in the operations of the Local Limited Partnerships. In subsequent annual financial statements, upon receiving the actual annual results reported by the Local Limited Partnerships, management reverses its prior estimate and records the actual results reported by the Local Limited Partnerships.  Equity in losses of Local Limited Partnerships allocated to the Partnership are not recognized to the extent that the investment balance would be adjusted below zero.  If the Local Limited Partnerships reported net income in future years, the Partnership will resume applying the equity method only after its share of such net income equals the share of net losses not recognized during the period(s) the equity method was suspended (see Note 2).
 
 In accordance with the accounting guidance for the consolidation of variable interest entities, the Partnership determines when it should include the assets, liabilities, and activities of a variable interest entity (VIE) in its financial statements, and when it should disclose information about its relationship with a VIE. The analysis that must be performed to determine which entity should consolidate a VIE focuses on control and economic factors. A VIE is a legal structure used to conduct activities or hold assets, which must be consolidated by a company if it is the primary beneficiary because it has (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. If multiple unrelated parties share such power, as defined, no party will be required to consolidate the VIE. Further, the guidance requires continual reconsideration of the primary beneficiary of a VIE.
 
 Based on this guidance, the Local Limited Partnerships in which the Partnership invests meet the definition of a VIE. However, management does not consolidate the Partnership's interests in these VIEs, as it is not considered to be the primary beneficiary. The Partnership currently records the amount of its investment in these Local Limited Partnerships as an asset on its balance sheets, recognizes its share of partnership income or losses in the statements of operations, and discloses how it accounts for material types of these investments in its financial statements. The Partnership's balance in investment in Local Limited Partnerships, plus the risk of recapture of tax credits previously recognized on these investments, represents its maximum exposure to loss. The Partnership's exposure to loss on these Local Limited Partnerships is mitigated by the condition and financial performance of the underlying Housing Complexes as well as the strength of the Local General Partners and their guarantee against credit recapture.
 
 Distributions received by the Partnership are accounted for as a reduction of the investment balance.  Distributions received after the investment has reached zero are recognized as income.  As of September 30, 2010, six of the investment balances had reached zero.

  NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
 
 Use of Estimates
 
 The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
 
 Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
 The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.  As of September 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, the Partnership had no cash equivalents.
 
 Concentration of Credit Risk
 
 At March 31, 2010, the Partnership maintained cash balances at a certain financial institution in excess of the federally insured maximum. The Partnership believes it is not exposed to any significant financial risk on cash.
 
 Reporting Comprehensive Income
 
 The Partnership had no items of other comprehensive income for all periods presented.
 
 Income Taxes
 
 The Partnership has elected to be treated as a pass-through entity for income tax purposes and, as such, is not subject to income taxes. Rather, all items of taxable income, deductions and tax credits are passed through to and are reported by its owners on their respective income tax returns.  The Partnership’s federal tax status as a pass-through entity is based on its legal status as a partnership. Accordingly, the Partnership is not required to take any tax positions in order to qualify as a pass-through entity. The Partnership is required to file and does file tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities. Accordingly, these financial statements do not reflect a provision for income taxes and the Partnership has no other tax positions which must be considered for disclosure.
 
 Net Loss Per Partnership Unit
 
 Net loss per Partnership Unit includes no dilution and is computed by dividing loss allocated to Limited Partners by the weighted average number of Partnership Units outstanding during the period.  Calculation of diluted net loss per Partnership Unit is not required.
 
 Revenue Recognition
 
 The Partnership is entitled to receive reporting fees from the Local Limited Partnerships.  The intent of the reporting fees is to offset (in part) administrative costs incurred by the Partnership in corresponding with the Local Limited Partnerships.  Due to the uncertainty of the collection of these fees, the Partnership recognizes reporting fees as collections are made.  12

 Amortization
 
 Acquisition fees and costs are being amortized over 30 years using the straight-line method. Amortization expense for each of the six months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 was $19,618.
 
 Impairment
 
 The Partnership reviews its investments in Local Limited Partnerships for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such investments may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the investment to the sum of the total amount of the remaining Low Income Housing Tax Credits allocated to the Partnership and any estimated residual value of the investment.  For the six months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, impairment loss related to investments in Local Limited Partnerships was $853,991 and $863,041, respectively.
 
 The Partnership also evaluates its intangibles for impairment in connection with its investments in Local Limited Partnerships.  Impairment on the intangibles is measured by comparing the Partnership’s total investment balance after impairment of investments in Local Limited Partnerships to the sum of the total of the remaining Low Income Housing Tax Credits allocated to the Partnership and any estimated residual value of the investment.  During each of the six months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, no impairment loss was recorded on the related intangibles.
 
 NOTE 2 - INVESTMENTS IN LOCAL LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
 
 As of September 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, the Partnership owns Local Limited Partnership interests in 13 Local Limited Partnerships.  All of these Local Limited Partnership’s own one Housing Complex consisting of an aggregate of 476 apartment units.  The Local General Partners of the Local Limited Partnerships manage the day to day operations of the entities. Significant Local Limited Partnership business decisions require approval from the Partnership.  The Partnership, as a Limited Partner, is generally entitled to 99.98%, as specified in the Local Limited Partnership governing agreements, of the operating profits and losses, taxable income and losses, and Low Income Housing Tax Credits of the Local Limited Partnerships.

 Certain Local Limited Partnerships have incurred significant operating losses and/or have working capital deficiencies.  In the event these Local Limited Partnerships continue to incur significant operating losses, additional capital contributions by the Partnership may be required to sustain operations of such Local Limited Partnerships.  If additional capital contributions are not made when they are required, the Partnership's investments in certain of such Local Limited Partnerships could be impaired, and the loss and recapture of the related Low Income Housing Tax Credits could occur.

 (c)
An annual asset management fee equal to 0.2% of the invested assets of the Partnership, as defined.  “Invested Assets” means the sum of the Partnership’s investment in Local Limited Partnership interests and the Partnership’s Allocable share of mortgage loans on and other debts related to the Housing Complexes owned by such Local Limited Partnerships.  Asset management fees of $29,228 were incurred during each of the six months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, of which $45,000 and $22,500 was paid during the six months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
 
 (d)
A subordinated disposition fee in an amount equal to 1% of the sales price of real estate sold.  Payment of this fee is subordinated to the limited partners receiving a return on investment (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) and is payable only if the General Partner or its affiliates render services in the sales effort. No such fee was incurred for all the periods presented.
 
 (e)
The Partnership reimburses the General Partner or its affiliates for operating expenses incurred by the Partnership and paid for by the General Partner or its affiliates on behalf of the Partnership. Operating expense reimbursements were $22,938 and $5,081 during the six months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

 NOTE 4 – DUE FROM AFFILIATES, NET
 
 At September 30, 2010 and March 31, 2010, loans receivable of $75,394 was due from one Local Limited Partnership, ACN Southern Hills II, L.P. (“Southern Hills”) in which the Partnership owns a 99.98% interest. The loan receivable is in the form of a 20 year promissory note, is subordinate to the first mortgage on the respective property, due in full on August 30, 2022 and earns interest at a rate of 8% per annum.  Southern Hills had a construction loan payable aggregating approximately $1,100,000 as of December 31, 2001, which was due in March 2002 and was not repaid at that time. In September 2002 the $1.1 million loan was refinanced. The Local General Partner paid off $557,000 of the loan with investment money received from the Partnership. The remaining balance was converted to a $463,000 first mortgage with a bank and a $80,000 promissory note due in 20 years to the Partnership. The payments are to be made monthly and at the end of the year from available cash flow. The Partnership expects this loan to be collectible in full.  The mortgage note has covenants requiring the DCR to be maintained at 1.20 or greater.  In such cases where the DCR would fall below 1.20, no payments on the note would be made. The last payment for $20,002 was received on March 16, 2010.  16

 NOTE 5 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
 The Partnership is not obligated to fund advances to the Local Limited Partnerships. Occasionally, when Local Limited Partnerships encounter operational issues the Partnership may decide to advance funds to assist the Local Limited Partnership with its operational issues. During the year ended March 31, 2002, Associates was advised that Lake Village Apartments, a Local Limited Partnership, was in default of certain covenants relating to certain loans advanced for the construction of the apartments. The defaults were primarily caused by the general contractor failing to complete the construction of the development according to the terms of the Lake Village Apartment’s loans. As a result of the foregoing, on June 30, 2002, the Local General Partner of Lake Village Apartments was replaced by an entity wholly owned by two minority shareholders and officers of Associates and a workout agreement was executed with the lender (the “Agreement”), whereby the Local General Partner of Lake Village Apartments was replaced by the aforementioned entity. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the new Local General Partner would contribute additional equity to the Local Limited Partnership if necessary, a new general contractor would complete the construction of the development, and the lender, upon satisfaction of certain conditions of the Agreement as defined, would continue to fund the completion of the construction and other costs. In addition, pursuant to the Agreement, the Partnership Agreement was amended, and the Partnership committed and paid additional capital contributions of $855,628 as a result of obtaining additional Low Income Housing Tax Credits.  Construction of the development was completed as of June 2002, at which time all construction loans converted to permanent financing.
 
 Beginning in November 2005, the Lake Village Apartments are being managed by the Henry County Housing Development Group, Inc. (HCHD).  HCHD is the local housing authority serving Kewanee, Illinois.  HCHD currently manages numerous apartment units in Kewanee and brings substantial knowledge of property management and knowledge of the local community.  HCHD also administers the tenant housing choice voucher program and may be able to provide Lake Village Apartments occupants with rental assistance payments to help defer the cost of their rent thereby making it more attractive for a prospective tenant to remain at Lake Village Apartments.  As of the report date, the Partnership has advanced Lake Village Apartments approximately $292,428 all of which has been reserved for and written off as bad debt as management has deemed the collectability to be questionable.  These advances were used to fund certain recurring and nonrecurring operating expenses consisting primarily of property taxes and insurance.
 
 Beginning in April 2006, Lake Village Apartments did not make its regularly schedule principal and interest payment to the mortgage holder, Illinois Development Housing Authority (IHDA) and began negotiations with IHDA at that time to restructure the debt.  In April 2010 IHDA filed a summons and complaint for foreclosure in the 14th Judicial Circuit, Cambridge, Henry County, Illinois against Lake Village Apartments.  Lake Village Apartments through counsel, filed an answer to the complaint denying the material allegations contained in the complaint.  No further action by IHDA has been taken in the lawsuit. Notwithstanding, IHDA continues to negotiate with Lake Village Apartments regarding some type of partnership and debt restructuring. The General Partner is pursuing a sale of the Lake Village Apartments.  An appraisal received in April 2008 indicated a current market value of $480,000. The Partnership has not had another appraisal prepared since that date.  As of July 2010, the current mortgage balance to be paid for Lake Village Apartments is $2,088,485. If the General Partner is unable to consummate a sale of this asset or work out a partnership and debt restructuring, the Housing Complex could be lost, thereby creating a recapture event for the previous Low Income Housing Tax Credits claimed to date. While recapture could occur, the Partnership would not be liable to make the partners whole and therefore no contingent liability has been accrued at September 30, 2010.  Although the General Partner is actively pursuing a sale, there is no assurance this will occur.

  NOTE 5 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES, continued
 On April 9, 2010 Stroud Housing, LP (“Stroud”) was inspected by the Oklahoma Housing Finance Agency (“OHFA”) and it was concluded that Stroud had fallen below the minimum set-aside requirements due to the number of down units, vacancies and the overall condition of the property. The set-aside requirement for this property is that 40 percent or more of the building’s aggregate units be occupied by individuals with incomes of 60 percent or less of the area median gross income.  The OHFA requested that all corrections to be made no later than June 7, 2010.   The Local General Partner engaged legal counsel to help rectify this situation.  Stroud’s legal counsel asked for an extension to get all the corrections made.  OHFA granted an extension and is currently receiving bi-weekly progress reports on the issues and the corrections being made.  On December 14, 2010 the Local General Partner received a letter from OHFA stating that all corrections had been made and the final close out letter included copies of the corrected forms from the Internal Revenue Service. See below for a detailed explanation.
 
 As of the report date, 86% of the units are occupied. The Partnership has also been informed that substantially all of the deficiencies noted in the inspection report have been corrected. Associates sent personnel to the site on October 5, 2010 to inspect the property and confirmed that the units were rent ready.  The Asset Manager who visited the property confirmed that the property was 39% occupied as of October 5, 2010 and additional units were pre-leased which would have brought the occupancy to 50%, within the following weeks.  It appears that the minimum of 40% of the units are in fact occupied or rent ready, therefore it appears reasonable that the minimum set-aside requirements will have been met for 2010.
 
 There was a potential issue that the minimum set-aside requirements may not have been met during 2008 and 2009.  The Internal Revenue Service had issued Form 8823 (Low-Income Housing Credit Agencies Report of Noncompliance or Building Disposition) that stated that certain units had been out of compliance which would constitute a recapture event of the tax credits that were taken for those two years.   Subsequent to the initial Form 8823’s being issued the Internal Revenue Service issued corrected 8823’s stating that the minimum set-aside had been met and that there were no recapture events.
 
 Stroud has struggled for many years with the Local General Partner funding deficits of over $1,000,000.  The local economy of the area was severely impacted by a tornado in 1999 and many local businesses decided not to rebuild after the destruction.   In May and early June 2010, there were storms that caused additional damage to the property. These damages are currently being reviewed by the insurance company and their adjustors.  It is expected that proceeds from one or more of the covered claims will help the Local General Partner have all the units on-line and in condition to be rented.  A budget is currently in place for that process and the insurance proceeds will help meet the established budget and maintain the property with stabilized occupancy and operations.  While recapture could occur, the Partnership would not be liable to make the partners whole and therefore no contingent liability has been accrued at September 30, 2010.

  Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
 Forward-Looking Statements
 
 With the exception of the discussion regarding historical information, this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and other discussions elsewhere in this Form 10-Q contain forward looking statements.  Such statements are based on current expectations subject to uncertainties and other factors which may involve known and unknown risks that could cause actual results of operations to differ materially from those projected or implied.  Further, certain forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions about future events which may not prove to be accurate.
 
 Risks and uncertainties inherent in forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, the Partnership’s future cash flows and ability to obtain sufficient financing, level of operating expenses, conditions in the Low Income Housing Tax Credit property market and the economy in general, as well as legal proceedings.  Historical results are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for any future period.
 
 Subsequent written and oral forward looking statements attributable to the Partnership or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by cautionary statements in this Form 10-Q and in other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
 The following discussion and analysis compares the results of operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, and should be read in conjunction with the condensed unaudited financial statements and accompanying notes included within this report.
 
 Financial Condition
 
 The Partnership’s assets at September 30, 2010 consisted of $249,000 in cash, aggregate investments in the thirteen Local Limited Partnerships of $1,580,000, $7,000 in other assets and $75,000 of due from affiliates, net.  Liabilities at September 30, 2010 consisted of $202,000 of accrued fees and expenses payable to the General Partner and its affiliates and $2,000 of accrued expenses.
 
 Results of Operations
 Three Months Ended September 30, 2010 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2009.The Partnership’s net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was $(160,000), reflecting an increase of approximately $(52,000) from the $(108,000) net loss experienced for the three months ended September 30, 2009. There was a $27,000 decrease in equity in losses of Local Limited Partnerships, which can vary from year to year depending on the operations of the underlying Housing Complexes of the Local Limited Partnerships.  Legal and accounting fees increased by $21,000 due to the timing of the accounting work performed.  During the three months ended September 30, 2010 there were $(39,000) of advances made to one Local Limited Partnership, which was reserved for in full as of September 30, 2010 compared to no advances made and reserved during the three months ended September 30, 2009.  The advances made to the troubled Local Limited Partnerships can vary each year depending on the operations of the individual Local Limited Partnerships. Additionally, reporting fees decreased by $(14,000), and distribution income decreased by $(1,000) during the three months ended September 30, 2010.  Reporting fees and distribution income can fluctuate from year to year due to the fact that Local Limited Partnerships pay those fees to the Partnership when the Local Limited Partnership’s cash flow will allow for the payment.  Other expenses also increased by $(4,000) during the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2009.
  19
  Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
 
 Six Months Ended September 30, 2010 Compared to the Six Months Ended September 30, 2009.  The Partnership’s net loss for the six months ended September 30, 2010 was $(1,128,000), reflecting an increase of approximately $(38,000) from the $(1,090,000) net loss experienced for the six months ended September 30, 2009. There was a decrease of $(9,000) in impairment loss.  Impairment loss can vary from year to year depending on the operations of the Local Limited Partnerships and the amount of the Low Income Housing Tax Credits remaining, along with the residual value estimated. The equity in losses of Local Limited Partnership decreased by $49,000, which can vary from year to year depending on the operations of the underlying Housing Complexes of the Local Limited Partnerships.  Additionally, legal and accounting fees increased by $21,000 due to the timing of the accounting work performed.  During the six months ended September 30, 2010 there were $(47,000) of advances made to one Local Limited Partnership, which was reserved for in full as of September 30, 2010 compared to no advances made and reserved during the six months ended September 30, 2009.  The advances made to the troubled Local Limited Partnerships can vary each year depending on the operations of the individual Local Limited Partnerships. Additionally, reporting fees decreased by $(18,000), and distribution income decreased $(1,000) during the three months ended September 30, 2010.  Reporting fees and distribution income can fluctuate from year to year due to the fact that Local Limited Partnerships pay those fees to the Partnership when the Local Limited Partnership’s cash flow will allow for the payment. Other expenses also increased by $8,000 during the six months ended September 30, 2010 compared to the six months ended September 30, 2009.
 
 Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
 Six Months Ended September 30, 2010 Compared to Six Months Ended September 30, 2009.  The net decrease in cash during the six months ended September 30, 2010 was $(89,000) compared to a net increase in cash for the six months ended September 30, 2009 of $7,000.  The change was partially due to the fact that during the six months ended September 30, 2010 there was a $(23,000) reimbursement of operating advances paid to the General Partner or an affiliate compared to only $(5,000) paid during the six months ended September 30, 2009.  During the six months ended September 30, 2009, the Partnership paid $(23,000) in accrued expenses compared to $(45,000) paid during the six months ended September 30, 2010. Additionally, during the six months ended September 30, 2010, the Partnership received no payment on a note from one of the Local Limited Partnerships compared to a $4,000 payment received during the six months ended September 30, 2009.  The Partnership also received an increase of $16,000 in distributions received from Local Limited Partnerships.
 
 During the six months ended September 30, 2010, accrued payables, which consist primarily of related party asset management fees and advances due to the General Partner, increased by $3,000. The General Partner does not anticipate that the balance of the accrued fees and advances will be paid until such time as capital reserves are in excess of foreseeable working capital requirements of the Partnership.
 
 The Partnership expects its future cash flows, together with its net available assets as of September 30, 2010, to be insufficient to meet all currently foreseeable future cash requirements. Associates has agreed to continue providing advances sufficient enough to fund the operations and working capital requirements through January 31, 2012.  20
 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
 
 Recent Accounting Changes
 
 In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued accounting guidance for Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. This guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and shall be applied prospectively except for very limited transactions. In February 2008, the FASB delayed for one year implementation of the guidance as it pertains to certain non-financial assets and liabilities. The Partnership adopted U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for Fair Value Measurements effective April 1, 2008, except as it applies to those non-financial assets and liabilities, for which the effective date was April 1, 2009. The Partnership has determined that adoption of this guidance has no material impact on the Partnership's financial statements.
 
 In November 2008, the FASB issued accounting guidance on Equity Method Investment Accounting Considerations that addresses how the initial carrying value of an equity method investment should be determined, how an impairment assessment of an underlying indefinite-lived intangible asset of an equity method investment should be performed, how an equity method investee's issuance of shares should be accounted for, and how to account for a change in an investment from the equity method to the cost method. This guidance is effective in fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Partnership adopted the guidance for the interim quarterly period beginning April 1, 2009. The impact of adopting it does not have a material impact on the Partnership's financial condition or results of operations.
 
 In April 2009, the FASB issued accounting guidance for Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. This requires disclosure about the method and significant assumptions used to establish the fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods as well as annual statements. It became effective for as of and for the interim period ended June 30, 2009 and has no impact on the Partnership's financial condition or results of operations.
 
 In May 2009, the FASB issued guidance regarding subsequent events, which was subsequently updated in February 2010. This guidance established general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. In particular, this guidance sets forth the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. This guidance was effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods ending after June 15, 2009, and was therefore adopted by the Partnership for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The adoption did not have a significant impact on the subsequent events that the Partnership reports, either through recognition or disclosure, in the financial statements. In February 2010, the FASB amended its guidance on subsequent events to remove the requirement to disclose the date through which an entity has evaluated subsequent events, alleviating conflicts with current SEC guidance. This amendment was effective immediately and therefore the Partnership did not include the disclosure in this Form 10-Q.  21
 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)
 
 In June 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting and disclosure requirements for the consolidation of VIEs.  The amended guidance modifies the consolidation model to one based on control and economics, and replaces the current quantitative primary beneficiary analysis with a qualitative analysis. The primary beneficiary of a VIE will be the entity that has (1) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE.  If multiple unrelated parties share such power, as defined, no party will be required to consolidate the VIE. Further, the amended guidance requires continual reconsideration of the primary beneficiary of a VIE and adds an additional reconsideration event for determination of whether an entity is a VIE.  Additionally, the amendment requires enhanced and expanded disclosures around VIEs.  This amendment is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009.  The adoption of this guidance on April 1, 2010 does not havea material effect on the Partnership’s financial statements.
 
 In June 2009, the FASB issued the Accounting Standards Codification (Codification). Effective July 1, 2009, the Codification is the single source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by non-governmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. The Codification is intended to reorganize, rather than change, existing GAAP. Accordingly, all references to currently existing GAAP have been removed and have been replaced with plain English explanations of the Partnership's accounting policies. The adoption of the Codification did not have a material impact on the Partnership's financial position or results of operations.
 
 Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks
 
 NOT APPLICABLE
 
 Item 4T.  Controls and Procedures
 
 (a)           Disclosure controls and procedures
 
 As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Partnership’s General Partner, under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of Associates, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Partnership’s “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in the Partnership’s periodic report filings with SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, consistent with the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
 
 The Partnership must rely on the Local Limited Partnerships to provide the Partnership with certain information necessary to the timely filing of the Partnership’s periodic reports. Factors in the accounting at the Local Limited Partnerships have caused delays in the provision of such information during past reporting periods, and resulted in the Partnership’s inability to file its periodic reports in a timely manner.
 
 Once the Partnership has received the necessary information from the Local Limited Partnerships, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of Associates believe that the material information required to be disclosed in the Partnership’s periodic report filings with SEC is effectively recorded, processed, summarized and reported, albeit not in a timely manner. Going forward, the Partnership will use the means reasonably within its power to impose procedures designed to obtain from the Local Limited Partnerships the information necessary to the timely filing of the Partnership’s periodic reports.

 (b)
Changes in internal controls
 
 There were no changes in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2010 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.
